The effect of time delay and growth rate inhibition in the bacterial treatment of wastewater.

A class of models which incorporate the inhibitory effect of large nutrient concentrations on the growth rate of bacteria is investigated. The consequences of a time delay between the change in growth rate of bacteria and a change in the nutrient concentration are obtained. The models predict system failure if either shock overloading or shock underloading occurs and under certain conditions autonomous oscillations are predicted.
